Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Although they have not thrown an MLB pitch in 2024, Johan Oviedo threw 5,964 pitches that were tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2020 and 2023, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2023, they relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (96mph) and Slider (88mph), also mixing in a Curve (81mph). He also rarely threw a Change (88mph) and Sinker (95mph).


In 2023, compared to other RHP:
Their fourseam fastball has heavy sinking action, generates a very high amount of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has well above average velo and has slight armside run. Their slider is thrown extremely hard and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders. Their curve has very little depth, is slightly harder than usual, has primarily 12-6 movement and results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves. Their change is much firmer than usual and has slight armside fade. Their sinker is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sinkers, has well above average velo, has slight armside run and has some natural sinking action.
